“Long live the King” hailed Entertainment Weekly upon publication of Stephen King’s On Writing. Part memoir, part master class by one of the bestselling authors of all time, this superb volume is a revealing and practical view of the writer’s craft, comprising the basic tools of the trade every writer must have. King’s advice is grounded in his vivid memories from childhood through his emergence as a writer, from his struggling early career to his widely reported, near-fatal accident in 1999—and how the inextricable link between writing and living spurred his recovery.

Beginning with her experience as a medical actor who was paid to act out symptoms for medical students to diagnose, Leslie Jamison's visceral and revealing essays ask essential questions about our basic understanding of others: How should we care about each other? How can we feel another's pain, especially when pain can be assumed, distorted, or performed? Is empathy a tool by which to test or even grade each other?

Come si fa oggi a stare nel mondo? In questo mondo. A trovare un modo, un posto adatto a noi che siamo consapevoli di essere privilegiati ma dobbiamo fare i conti anche coi nostri, di traumi, piccoli o grandi, oltre che con quelli giganteschi di chi è sotto le bombe, di chi è oppresso, povero, svantaggiato. Ci si vergogna a dire che ci si sente soli, ma lo siamo sempre di più. Daria Bignardi lo dice con sincerità, ironia, coraggio. Sente che la solitudine può essere una prigione ma anche un posto da cui ascoltare il battito del cuore del mondo. Il mondo la chiama e lei parte.

Vincent Van Gogh arrived in the French capital on the last day of February 1886, a month short of his thirty-third birthday. He was a man beaten down by life, half-starved, and nearly broken psychologically. He was saved by his brother Theo, who provided him with room, board, and, most crucially, emotional support while he attempted to master the difficult craft of painting. Thus far, Vincent's crude scenes of peasant life rendered in murky shades of brown and gray were both hackneyed and amateurish.

«Cercate in questo libro cose semplici e modeste: il racconto di tre viaggi in Sicilia», nei primi anni Cinquanta, «e delle cose di laggiú come possono cadere sotto l'occhio aperto di un viaggiatore senza pregiudizi», ci suggeriva l'autore. La forza delle pagine di Carlo Levi è concentrata in un'unica parola: amore. Come scrive Vincenzo Consolo nella sua Prefazione , «l'amore per tutto quanto è umano, acutamente umano, vale a dire debole e doloroso, vale a dire nobile.
